45. And immediately He made His taught ones enter into the boat, and to go before Him to the other side, to Bĕyth Tsaiḏa, while He was dismissing the crowd.
46. And having sent them away, He went away to the mountain to pray.
47. And when evening came, the boat was in the middle of the sea. And He was alone on the land.
48. And seeing them straining at rowing – for the wind was against them – at about the fourth watch of the night, He came to them walking on the sea, and He wished to pass them by.
49. And when they saw Him walking on the sea, they thought it was a phantom, and cried out,
50. for they all saw Him and were troubled. And immediately He spoke to them and said to them, “Take courage, it is I. Do not be afraid.”
51. And He went up to them, into the boat, and the wind ceased. And they were exceedingly amazed in themselves, and marvelled.
52. For they did not understand about the loaves, because their heart was hardened.
